that it would have been incredible stupidity on Assad's part to have done this and possibly bring the US in with UN approval.

The open question is, then-- if not Assad, who? Nobody seems to know, but it's a good guess it's someone who wants to bring the rest of the world in, unless it was a mistake on the part of one of his more assholish underlings.

But, whoever it is, it's someone with no regard for human life or decency. I can't believe any government would stoop this low no matter how craven we would like to think it is, but we know of some groups who revel in blood.
